I want to reach out over the Loch
A minorAm FF
And feel your hand across the water
C majorC G6G6
Walk with you along an unapproved road
A minorAm FF
Not looking over my shoulder
C majorC G6G6
I wanna see, and I wanna hear
A minorAm FF
To under- stand your fears
C majorC G6G6 A minorAm FF
But we're north and south of the river
C majorC G6G6
I've been doing it wrong all of my life
A minorAm FF
This holy town has turned me over
C majorC G6G6
A augmentedA young man running from what he didn't understand
A minorAm FF
While the wind from the Loch just get colder, colder
C majorC G6G6
There was a badness that had its way
A minorAm FF
But love wasn't lost, love will have its day
C majorC G6G6 A minorAm FF
North and south of the river
C majorC G6G6 A minorAm FF
North and south of the river
C majorC G6G6
Can we stop playing this old tattoo
A minorAm FF
Darling I don't have the answer
C majorC G6G6
I wanna meet you where you are
A minorAm FF
I don't need ya to surrender
C majorC G6G6
'Cause there's no feeling that's so alone
A minorAm FF
When when the one you're hurting is your own
C majorC G6G6 A minorAm FF
North and south of the river
C majorC G6G6
North and south of the river
A minorAm FF
North and south of the river
C majorC G6G6
Some high ground is not worth taking
A minorAm FF
Some connections are not worth making
C majorC G6G6
This old church bell no longer ringing
A minorAm FF
Some old songs are not worth bringing
C majorC G6G6 A minorAm FF
North... / Higher ground is not worth taking
